Answer:
136+ m ≥ 189 is the required inequality : m: The earning in 4th week
Arthur needs to earn AT LEAST $53 in the fourth week to buy the coat which costs at least $189.
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount earned by Arthur in first 3 weeks = $136
The amount needed to buy a coat = AT LEAST $189
Let us assume the amount Arthur needs to earn more to buy coat = $m
⇒ $ 136 + Amount Earned in 4th week ≥ $189
⇒ 136+ m ≥ 189
The above equation is the NEEDED inequality of the given situation.
Now, solving for the value of m, we get:
136+ m ≥ 189
⇒ m ≥ 189 - 136 = 53
or, m ≥ $53
Hence, Arthur needs to earn AT LEAST $53 in the fourth week to buy the coat which costs at least 189.
Answer:
The home printer is faster.
Step-by-step explanation:
25 photos in 12.5 minutes
12.5 is half of 25 and therefore this is a two to one ratio.
So 2 photos print in 1 minute with the office printer.
And 4 photos in 2 minutes(this is relevant later)
The home printer prints 15 photos in 6 minutes. Since 15 is not divisible by 6 without a remainder divide both by 3.
So 5 photos in 2 minutes. This is faster than the office printer.
To find how many photos it would print in 12 more minutes, simply multiply 15 by two, since the minutes(6) was multiplied by 2 to get 12. This leaves you with an answer of 30 photos in 12 minutes
